AT&T again said to be considering Dish Network acquisition

. After the company's failed acquisition of T-Mobile, AT&T is said to be in dire need of additional wireless spectrum and may be looking at Dish Network, the second-largest satellite-television provider in the United States. "AT&T wants to get more spectrum," said Recon Analytics Roger Entner in a telephone interview with Bloomberg. "They are a year behind Verizon in the LTE race. Dish would undoubtedly be a good combination and it would solve a lot of AT&T's problems." Dish acquired spectrum from the bankruptcies of DBSD North America and TerreStar Networks.
